Rhian (pronounced Rih-an, not Rai-yanne) is six years old and she was born in Washington DC. She had some American visitors come to her house. Her mummy was all clappy wappy, and told them that they could sleep downstairs in the cottage. They put their bags into the room and came back upstairs to have a glass of wine and some snacks, which Tanti had prepared. Rhian was playing with one of her toys. It was nearly her bedtime and she played on instead of going to sleep. She hoped that her mummy or daddy would not come in and find her not asleep.

Then, Rhian told her daddy to write a story about the visitors. This is it. Her next story will be about an adventure.
